doing..? hacking cell phone software in Lua? I'd love to have at some embedded stuff with a non-c language. So much less to worry about screwing up. Although a lot of embedded stuff is hardware level stuff that has to be done in c anyway, so no lua there.
yes. Maybe we will release the interpreter part open source., but it is not done yet. Basically a J2ME and C++ (for brew and palm), interpreter for lua.
The whole idea, is that you can build an app once in Lua, and run it everywhere (for reals). This is a company thing, (we are not a small startup), so I am not sure how much of it will be realeased open source.
Its an interesting read. Lua seems pretty sweet!
